Just the other day, Aaron and I were invited to a local JET Program orientation for this year’s outbound JET participants. You won’t believe what happened when we got there….
We were just standing around talking when a guy named Elliott came up to us and told us that he was a viewer of Happy Hour Japan! How crazy is that?! Aaron and I were completely taken by surprise! We ended up inviting him to join us for an episode of Happy Hour Japan…and well, here it is!
In this episode, we’ll introduce you to Elliott and his friend Tom. Both of them are leaving for Japan on the JET Program later this month. We had a great time talking about Japan and the JET Program–so much so that we couldn’t fit it all in just one episode. So we’ve broken it up into two videos and this is part 1.
I hope you enjoy it and stay tuned for part 2 where I’ll tell you a really embarrassing story about my JET interview way back when!
Rob, who was our special guest last time, was nice enough to hang out with us again for this episode of Happy Hour Japan. Since Rob lived in Japan for a year, Aaron and I decided to take this opportunity to interview him and ask him what it was like!
Watch as we delve into things like culture shock, convenience stores, and man-made islands!
